It's just marxist propaganda trying to disguise itself as science because they've seen that gullible people have blind faith in it and anything that poses as one (following the example of Freud, who is nowadays totally debunked).

How can it be marxist propaganda if each paper disproves the last? Doesn't that mean that for every marxist, there is an non-marxist trying to disprove that marxist?

I'm really interested in this pact that you speak of. Please give us details. Is there an annual meeting of those who made this pact? Is there a contract they signed? Do they sign in blood, as all cabals plotting to destroy the education of our children do?

Some argument about the health detriments of a vegetarian diet, then some dickhead came and started calling regular science pseudoscience, then oldrac decided he didn't like the content of this thread and started spamming pictures and .gifs of ponies.Also, herbivores sometimes very rarely eat meat; possibly if they're crazy or weird or just because. Vegetarianism is a lifestyle choice, herbivory is where an animal is adapted to eating only plants.

I thought they'd mainly go for their own, after giving birth, for energy. I once saw a goat doing that. With it's own placenta. After giving birth. Probably because giving birth needs a lot of energy and because of that the goat might have been hungry.

Also: Snails 'n stuff. Just can't avoid them when eating grass. Although that probably doesn't count as meat. I don't lnow anything about that kind of stuff, so...
